Nominator in Chief

As the next President begins, one of the first challenges could be the nomination of a Supreme Court Justice. At this moment it appears the Senate will not confirm a replacement Justice nominated by President Obama, due to it being an election year. So should those who are running for President name their potential nominees if they were to be elected President? @Scotus took a recent poll of over 500 followers asking this question. We are calling this a tie with just a few more saying “yes, the Candidates should offer names of those they would appoint to the Supreme Court”. As the election continues we will keep track of candidates and if they offer insight on what a future Supreme Court could look like.
